I live in the city of Chicago, Illinois in the Wrigleyville/Lakeview neighborhood. First and foremost. we are 4 blocks from Historic Wrigley field and all the night life surrounding the stadium. We are exactly 1 block from a CTA Brown-line/Red-line "el" stop which provides easy access to Downtown/Loop or neighborhoods north/south of us for $2.25. We are .5 mile from the Michigan Lake front perfect for jogging or laying out in the Sun. My Neighborhood is young, vibrant and safe,. It is surrounded by lots of restaurants, bars, neighborhood shops and boutiques. The Vic, The Apollo Theater, The Blue Man Group and the Music Box Theatres are all located within 1 to 7 blocks from the Loft.

WALK TO: Wrigley Field (The Cubs Stadium ) My Loft is at 3200 block of Sheffield Ave and Wrigley Field’s Bleacher entrance is at 3600 block of Sheffield Ave. (Only 4 blocks – 6 minute walk) Although we are close to all the action, the condo is very quiet.

All guests will have fresh linens and fresh towels as well as their own toiletries set out; Complimentary coffee will also be provided during your stay.
If you are new to Chicago, I can leave a list of all of my favorite places as suggestions for you to visit, dine and see, both on and off the beaten path. After living in this beautiful city for 15 years, I have discovered some unique places- I think you will find it as amazing as I do, regardless of the season. Our Loft is a GEM in the heart of the city!

Bathroom will have shampoo, conditioner and clean towels.
Kitchen will have clean dishes, utensils and working appliances.

Our host Jay made us very welcome and even pre-recorded a TV program we wished to view after our arrival. Whilst we did not meet Jay or Elisa, we communicated very well both before and during our stay at The Loft.
The description of the property was extremely accurate, but the property was bigger than it appeared on screen, which was very good. Eventhough we had known in advance, the fact that we had to climb 44 steps to The Loft was a bit tiresome. That was the challenge.
The location proved to be very good and extremely close to both the Red Line and the bus routes, which we used a lot to move about the city.

Two of us stayed in Jay and Lisa's apartment for a week in March and would happily stay again. The apartment is large, comfortable, looks exactly as pictured, and is very quiet. The neighborhood is terrific, too. Not walkable to most Chicago tourist attractions (except Wrigley Field), but the neighborhood itself is great, and transit is close by for those going towards the loop, Millennium Park, etc

An absolutely splendid place!
Jay and Elisa are first rate communicators and were gracious and attentive. The Loft is classy...well appointed with comfortable beds and the kitchen was even complete enough for us to bake pies for our daughter and her hungry friends. The location is a dream...grocery store, drug store and restaurants just steps away. We had such a good stay and we are eager to return.

Jay and Elisa were excellent hosts. Great communication and definitely got the feeling they were doing all that they could to make sure we had a pleasant stay. The loft itself is amazing. Super cozy and quiet, yet just a stone's throw away from the train station, as well as a lively neighborhood filled with local eats and attractions. We would definitely love to come back to both the city and to this loft!

We had an amazing stay in the Loft. The apartment is exactly as seen in the photos, but you don't get a feel for how big the place is - very spacious! The location is great with local bars, shops and the station is literally just around the corner. We were here in freezing cold weather, but the Loft was always lovely and warm. We would definitely stay here again if returning to Chicago. Jay & Elisa were easy to contact and really helpful. Loved the wine fridge & the coffee machine - great touches! Until next time :-)
